We have an ongoing joke or not joke with Brett's Brother Tim and wife Cynthia that we are going to move to Houston. Actually, it is usually Tim and Cynthia who bring it up, always telling us why we should move there and be closer to them, and sometimes I am tempted, like when it is 75 degrees in November, but then I remember the summer........... Really if it wasn't for the afro my hair gets in the horrendous humidity it might be more of a consideration.
There are many thing we do love about Texas (especially the Mexican food) but mostly we just love being with our family. And this year was no different: Thanksgiving, lots of food, family and kids running around. Be ready for lots of photos!
It took almost 18 hours to get there!! We spent lots of time in this cool ride
Coby is the oldest of all the cousins, and the sweetest! He just loved on baby Sarah the whole time! He played with her, fed her, burped her and always wanted to hold her.
our Trip wouldn't be complete without a little time on the ipads/iphones. These 3 were hooked the most. In fact Maya said she liked Garek because he liked video games.
The kids spent lots of time outside, the weather was beautiful!
And of course we enjoyed Thanksgiving together
The kids did lots of craft
Dad's craft was a lego warcraft
Uncle Tim lit up the Christmas lights
We all played with baby Sarah
The brothers hung out
Of course the girls had to have a bath together
and then we had a braid party
followed by attack daddy/uncle Brett
and on the last day, the girls got to decorate themselves and aunt Cynthia (she doesn't have any girls so this was a special treat for her also)!
Aren't they Beautiful?
and of course we had to get the "cousins" photo
this one was my favorite
We can't wait to go back, it is always so fun!
It looks wonderful! I keep wanting to get back to Houston for Thanksgiving, too. A bunch of my cousins celebrate there every year. Sarah is such a doll face! I have your announcement on my fridge and people comment on it ALL the time. :) So glad you had a great time.
